July 5, 2012. 10 Steps to Prepare Your Data Center for the Zombie Apocalypse. 8212; bill @ 10:46 pm. Is your data center ready for the coming zombie apocalypse? Unlike conventional disaster recovery (DR)/business continuity planning (BCP), zombie preparedness has a unique set of goals beyond data protection and business resumption. RPO/RTO goals go out the window when there’s a geek chewing on your skull. I generally recommend hiring a zombie specialist to develop your zombie survival plan. A good ZSP is...

I have built a lot of systems for various companies over the years. The challenge is to create repeatable processes that work in a variety of operating environments. Having a strong scripting toolkit can make all the difference, especially when you are under deadline. If you do not know the sc. Command, learn it!

January 7, 2012. Chicken and Andouille Cassoulet. 8212; bill @ 9:58 pm. Cassoulet is one of those great comfort foods that is wonderful anytime, but absolutely perfect on a cold winter evening. It’s meant to be warm and rustic, can you can pretty much throw whatever you have into the pot and it will come out tasting good. I made this recipe up tonight on the fly, but it was so good I had to share it. Try it yourself and let me know what you think. 1 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast – cubed. The Secur...

February 24, 2013. 8212; bill @ 2:00 pm. Just the word evokes thoughts of spicy tacos and cold cervezas. Like most slow-cook foods of love, Carnitas are simple to make, but can be time consuming. I created this recipe this year for my Super Bowl party. It makes awesome tacos and burritos. My salsa verde. Is the perfect compliment. Give them both a try the next time you need to feed a group of people. 4 lbs pork roast, Boston Butt or similar cut. 1/2 cup grape seed oil. 2 cups orange juice. July 5, 2012.
